keeping busy

I haven't posted here lately but I have been sewing. For the last couple weeks I've been working on my two secret projects, I finished the top and bottom of the churn dash quilt, made some geese for the twiddletails BOM, and this past week I worked on a couple baby dresses and a pink camo t-shirt for me. I finished up L's dress today and it's cute but I'm a bit disappointed in the pattern. I'm making this dress. It is far too wide, at least in the size 62. I'll have to see how the 80 that I'm working on ends up. I also had issues with my &*(* coverstitcher skipping stitches and had to rip out a few things.... I'm redoing one of the binding pieces on A's matching dress. It is hemmed already, but I have to do the back bodice binding again, sew gathering stitches in the skirt, and put the whole thing together. I will work on getting photos taken and post them in the next few days. I'm ready to go back to some quilting work and then woven clothing for a little while before I get back to knits.
